Ca-Fi Dashlinq4 Android 4.1.1 Car Stereo - WHOA BABY!

I grabbed Sygic [https://www.sygic.com/en]. It has full offline navigation support and all the maps can be downloaded to the SD card. I think the full set of US maps was around $33. I've used it for several long road trips and it does the job.

There are plenty of offline nav apps available, Waze even has that ability (it's really my favorite map app for plenty of reasons).

On sale now, really good app.

Anyone using the sub output? It's a single RCA so I used a highly rated gold plated splitter at the head unit and ran a set of RCA to sub. Voltage is VERY low. I have everything turned to max and still weak.
Think it will be a problem using a pair of the the regular speaker RCA outs and just relying on subwoofer amp to handle all crossover duties?

Double checking I'm getting the right cables... I'm looking at this post:

IIRC, you also have to tap the front speakers into the amp as well correct? Is there a plug and play option for this?

Yeah, but the harness they give you doesn't have the amp wired in properly. Its set with an empty pin, which is incorrect. It needs to be wired in properly (go pick up a harness at best buy and you'll see the amp wired in correctly). I'll take pictures and post later.

I'm using the sub-output and I don't notice any difference in output with my pathetic, low-profile 8" powered sub.

Hmm I came from high to low converter using wires at factory amp. It was a powerful dirty signal. Was exited to get a clean RCA signal but Damn is it weak.
I'm using a powered ten so nothing crazy either...couldn't fit my 3000 watt type r setup.
Are you using a splitter?

I'm using a Y-adapter, if that's what you mean. I'm not really an audiophile, so honestly, I probably wouldn't notice even if there was a difference. When I first got the sub, I was very underwhelmed with how it performed. Upgraded the door speakers and Dynamatted the doors, and now I don't even feel like I need a sub.

Cool. It's enough to rattle every interior part lol.
Since last update with car home removed Pandora never starts playing songs. Just loads album art and immediately skips to next track.

Wonder if this has something to do with the way T-Mobile views this traffic since they don't count against your data usage anymore...I'm tethered from a note 3

Try it when connected to your home WiFi or something to try and rule that out.
I don't think it's a T-Mobile thing though.

Using your phone as a personal hotspot to stream data is not included in T-Mobile music freedom "Uncarrier" thing. That data counts toward your data usage. That said, I don't think that's your issue.

Thanks. I've been wondering. I contacted Pandora and they said "try now" an hour ago.
Just downloaded oft beta UEL stage two tune and bought ODB2 splitter. Time! to go downstairs and play
